Clackmannanshire / Re: Jane Younger (nee Hunter)
« on: Tuesday 30 September 08 09:19 BST (UK) »
Thank you, Macalloa for that information. Your link to the oxforddnb.com has been very useful too!
Mary and Jean Bleloch were two sister who married two of the Younger brothers... Mary married James Younger and Jean married George Younger. However George Younger died at an early age, and his children were brought up by their grandparents from the Bleloch side on the farm.
Mary and Jean were children of John Bleloch and Margaret Hunter. I don`t know if you are from the area yourself, but their family farmed the farm of Gartgreenie over many years.
I have just been on holiday to Scotland and enjoyed the countryside where the farms are in Clackmannanshire.
If it is no trouble to yourself, I would love to see a photo of Mary Blelochs g-granchildren.
I hope it isnt too much to ask whether you also have any photos of the gravestones at Alloa. Mary Bleloch is also buried there amongst the Youngers!
Best wishes for now Lorrie21
